Installation on Ubuntu Using Git

Before you install Programy on Ubuntu you need to check that you have the pre-requisites installed, named Python 3.x and Pip. Installation instructions for Ubuntu can be found in Ubuntu Prerequisites

Python3 and Pip3

Program-Y is written exclusively in Python 3.x so you are going to need this installed. It also uses a large number of external Python 3rd party libraries so you are also going to need Python 3 version of pip

On Ubuntu ( other Linux's exist ), the following should get you sorted

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3
sudo apt-get install python3-pip

Now its succesfully installed we should just do a final check to make sure its on the command line and the right versions are available

$ python3 --version 
Python 3.7.0.
$ pip3 --version
pip 19.0.1 from /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pip (python 3.7)
